从uitabbaritem图像中删除蓝色轮廓

Question

I have changed the tabBar.selectedImageTintColor to my own purlple color however when the tabbar item is selected there is a bright blue line that surrounds the outside of the image which is now purple..

This looks fairly bad, so now I am trying to find a way to either remove it or change it to a better matching color.

However I don't know how to do it and am hoping someone can tell me.

This is the blue line I am talking about

This is how I changed the image selection color to purpule...

 myTabBar.selectedImageTintColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:49.0/255.0 green:0.0/255.0 blue:98.0/255.0 alpha:0.95];

another example of the blue outline with tabbaricon scaled up

In iOS 5, there are appearance methods that you can set.

Create your unselected and selected images exactly as you want them to appear and then setFinishedSelectedImage: withFinishedUnselectedImage: iOS will not apply any formatting to the images you provide through this method.

UIImage *selectedImage = [UIImage imageWithName:@"my_finished_selected_image"];
UIImage *unselectedImage = [UIImage imageWithName:@"my_finished_unselected_image"];
[tabBarItem setFinishedSelectedImage:selectedImage withFinishedUnselectedImage:unselectedImage];
